Religion as a Superordinate Meaning System and Socio-Psychological Integration
Theoretical discussions of religion's integrative potential are empirically tested with survey data collected from a sample of 609 respondents. Integration is measured with morale, Srole's anomia, and various alienation scales. Product-moment correlations show that participation in secular...

| 520 | |a Theoretical discussions of religion's integrative potential are empirically tested with survey data collected from a sample of 609 respondents. Integration is measured with morale, Srole's anomia, and various alienation scales. Product-moment correlations show that participation in secular organizations is more highly associated with socio-psychological integration than is participation in church services. In order to test Robert Bellah's "superordinate meaning system" hypothesis the data are elaborated by intensity of orthodox religious belief (as measured with the McClosky scale). The relationship between secular participation and integration is doubled under the high belief, high church participation condition and reduced almost to zero under the low belief, low participation condition. It is concluded that religious belief acts as a superordinate meaning system capable of endowing secular activity with greater and more integrative meaning. | ||
